CAMPAIGN AND WRITING PEOPLE READ HERE PLEASE

  • Generally, content is written in Markdown format. You can find documentation for this wonderful plain text formatting syntax all over:
    • daringfireball, the source of markdown
    • github's docs are super easy to follow
    • kramdown documents some extra features we have available to us
  • Any content that is blog-post-like in nature can be found in site/_posts.
  • Blog posts should follow the naming convention YYYY-MM-DD-post-title.md
  • If the footer requires additional copy, you can add it in site/_includes/footer-extra-copy.md
  • If there’s text you need to update, but can't find, it might be hiding in site/_layouts/default.html or site/index.html.
  • If you are unclear on updating the html, ask a dev—we’re happy to help!

For developers:

Fight for the Future campaigns are compiled by Jekyll, built using Grunt.js, deployed using Travis-CI, and hosted by GitHub pages.

Installing & running the server

  • Install/switch to Ruby 2.3.1 (i recommend rbenv)
  • cp .env.example .env
  • npm install to install packages,
  • npm start to run grunt (compiles assets, then watches for changes and compiles those too.)
  • A browser window will open pointed to the local server! 🎉

Setting up Free Progress for social A/B testing

Free Progress employs a domain security token mechanism to whitelist new domains automatically. This can be built into the deploy process for campaign sites. The build task stored in scripts/generate_fp_token.js creates a file called public/freeprogress.txt which is a SHA256 hash of the Free Progress domain security token concatenated with the site's CNAME. In order for this to work, please do the following:

  • Edit the FP_DOMAIN_SECURITY_TOKEN export in .env to the correct value stored in the Free Progress environment.
  • Also add FP_DOMAIN_SECURITY_TOKEN as a hidden environment variable in Travis.

Deploying

Travis will build on pull requests to make sure they don't break, but only actually deploy when PRs are merged to production. So always open pull requests.

Code Structure

CSS/Less

less
├─ base
│  ├─ common.less
│  └─ variables.less
├─ components
│  ├─ animation.less
│  └─ typography.less
├─ core.less
├─ lib
│  └─ reset.less
└─ partials
   └─ footer.less
  • All Less files are compiled & autoprefixed on build—minified as well on deploy
  • css files are saved to public/css/core.css on local builds
  • css files are saved to assets/css/core.css on deploy builds, then pushed to project-name/css/core.css on S3
  • When in doubt, make a new Less file and import it in core.less—there’s no real performance hit as a result of good organization

Javascript

  • All js files are concatenated on build—minified as well on deploy
  • js files are saved to public/js/core.js on local builds
  • js files are saved to assets/js/core.js on deploy builds, then pushed to project-name/js/core.js on S3
  • When in doubt, make a new javascript file and add it to the javascript files array around L27 of Gruntfile.js

Implementing design

  • TODO: design pattern library

  • TODO: build pattern library

  • TODO: launch pattern library

  • TODO: link pattern library here

  • Is this something that could be considered a stand-alone webapp? If so, check out site/_includes/apple-touch-icons.html & include in <head> of site/_layouts/default.html

  • delete one of the footers from site/_layouts/default.html (fftf or fftfef). if there is additional text to be added to the footer, use the markdown file at site/_includes/footer-extra-copy.md

Sample jekyll/liquid code

Cycle through markdown files in _posts directory

{% for post in site.posts %}

# [{{ post.title }}](#{{ post.slug }})

<time datetime="{{ post.date | date_to_rfc822 }}"></time>

{{ post.content }}

{% endfor %}
